Simpleology.com

I've been a member of Simpleology.com for sometime now and started over several times because I haven't made it all the way through the program.  This time I'm on day 9, and I'm staying with it!

The lesson for day 9 says in one part, "Did you know that there is really no such thing as 'procrastination' or 'laziness'?  These two words presuppose 'inaction'on the part of a person, but such a state does not exist.  Again, you are always doing something.  'Procrastination; and 'laziness'are really just ineffective actions masquerading as inaction."

This really hit me.  I listened to it four times.  I always believe that I have a big problem with procrastination, but maybe it's more of a decision problem.  Simpleology asks:  "Will you choose to take action that brings you closer to or further away from, your desired Target?"   "Will you make decisions that Strengthen your Power or Weaken your Power?"

I've made a lot of Weakening decsions, and some Strengthening decsions.  I am already beginning to use these questions in the daily choices I am making, and even if I do choose the weakening choice over the strengthening one, I am clearly weighing my options before doing so.  I know that my decision is a concious one.  That really does make a world of difference.

Simpleology.com is a free website and the first module is absolutely free.  Try it today and let me know what you think!
